The Residents Preset: Sam's Enchanted Evening 

With four decades of album releases, world tours, and museum shows behind them, the pioneering performance collective The Residents present a work-in-progress of a new solo music-theater event: Sam's Enchanted Evening
 is the story of one man's fumbling journey through a wasted life 
consumed by years of pathetic self-deception, unrequited desire, and 
rock 'n' roll. Performed in character by Randy Rose, The Residents' lead singer, and set against a cycle of aggressively deconstructed American pop songs, Sam's is a relentless, violent mash-up of laughter, pain, and elusive redemption, sometimes all in a single song. 

I'll miss it unfortunately.
